Are Retail Investors Interested In Crypto? JPMorgan Findings Differ From Google's
Portfolio Pulse from Murtuza Merchant
A JPMorgan report indicates a strong retail investor comeback in the cryptocurrency market, driving Bitcoin to multi-month highs. This contrasts with Google search trends showing low public interest. Increased activity on platforms like Block, PayPal, and Robinhood, and larger Bitcoin flows from smaller wallets suggest retail participation. However, the lack of clear use cases and utility for digital assets remains a concern. Despite potential bullish catalysts, JPMorgan sees only a 50% chance for the approval of spot Ether ETFs.
